Ramses feels compelled to take the "square scroll" Agenor found in a cave outside Nubia to Tanis, a scholar in Thebes. Inside that city, Prince Avaris is crowned king. His father, Serapis, was found murdered the night before. Kamose, his younger brother, runs off with Avaris's concubine, to Kadesh. Avaris declares war. In no time, the Nubians prove their superiority. They plan to catapult the walls of Kadesh and invade the city. Now desperate, King Ajax sends Kamose to his brother with an offer to buy the concubine. Avaris answers by dragging Kamose around the city walls tied behind his horse. King Ajax has only one option left. He asks King Shipharah to intervene. Weeks later, Avaris is murdered in his sleep. This ends the war. But Tanis, the man who assassinated Avaris, is found out and he's stabbed outside the walls of Thebes. As a result, Ramses and Agenor are left to finish his research. In the end, Agenor reveals the long-hidden secrets on the "square scroll." This action shakes the very foundations of Hyksos society in every city on that planet.

The crazy world today is vastly different from the much simpler world 80 years ago when Bob Crawford was born. An ordained Catholic deacon, he believes virtually every facet of his life has been guided by God, which has enabled him to be very comfortable in accepting all that came before him throughout his life. He believes that many people reported in the so-called news today, are not acting like normal human beings, and our great country needs an awakening. We are seeing a world where God has been deliberately hidden behind a wall. Bob wants to join with all people of Faith, and pull down that wall. Jesus died to show us how very much He loves us, and He is calling all people of faith, to put their differences aside, because division is of Satan; and we must now prayerfully come together for America and for Americans. True peace and happiness can only be found through our Creator, and Bob's desire is to share God's peace and bring as many people back to Him as possible, especially the elderly. This thoughtful memoir explores why we are here, where we are today, and, hopefully, where America is going in the future.
Orion Four is the fifth book in the Birth of the Gods series. Major Asheru Mastaba feels lucky to be chosen as one of the astronauts to pilot this giant starship across the Milky Way Galaxy. What makes this even better is that she will be working under the finest officer she's ever known, Commander Noah Saqqara. Noah, himself, is sure he's the one MSA astronaut perfectly suited to command this mission, yet he has doubts about going. His wife, Menes, was recently diagnosed with cancer, so she can't leave. However, Menes surprises him with the ultimate self-sacrifice, which releases Noah from the need to drop out of this mission. The journey begins with flybys of the largest planets in their own solar system, CM Draconis. These flybys will accelerate them to sub-light speed. However, they are extremely dangerous because the starship might be torn apart by the powerful gravitational fields of these monster planets. Commander Noah Saqqara knows the dangers. However, this 46.7 light year journey is very important. It will confirm the Mayan people's migration 3000 years ago from the planet Mars in the Orion Belt of the galaxy to their current home planet, Hyksos, in Constellation Draco.

Why am I writing this? Quite simply because I Love Our God; I Love People, and I Love living in the Greatest Country in the world; a Country where my Dad was "M.I.A., presumed dead" for 17 months after WWII; A Country where so many brave men and women have given their all for; a Country where we have and will continue to, overcome anything that divides us; and we will continue to do so, by living "In God We Trust." However, the devil is now obviously working diligently to divide us, and now is the time for ALL People of God, People of Faith, People of Hope, and People of Love, to come TOGETHER and return Our Country, and so many souls, to "In God We Trust." Please read, so we can come TOGETHER and join hands, hearts, and prayers, "In God We Trust". I am 81 years old, married for 58 years, with four wonderful children, four original and fantastic spouses, and the blessing of 12 beautiful grandchildren, and even one great, great-grandchild. I grew up proud of God, proud of Country, proud of our military, and proud to contribute as best I could, to America and Americans. I do not like the direction Our Country is now headed, and my goal is two-fold - (1) returning to "In God We Trust;" and (2) joining hands with like-minded people, and God, in saving souls. I believe that the direction we are headed is the result of the Satanic infiltration of what I consider to be the three pillars of any society: Creation: God's Law, and The Family, and we all, including our churches, have to accept responsibility in order to reverse the trend. Together with God, we WILL do it, but there will be a price to pay. Please read on with an open mind to see how, I believe, TOGETHER, this will happen.
The blued steel was cold to the touch and bitter in taste. All senses were heightened as the foreign object made its way to the appropriate resting place. Lodged against the roof to minimize any chance for survival, the answer was just one heartbeat away. A deafening silence filled the room at the moment of truth. My thumb pulled back the steel hammer as if acting by its own power. Why did God cast me aside? Life began with an abundance of His favor. A divine intervention adoption followed by eight years of love and security in a Christian home. Suddenly, without just cause, one by one the life sustaining blessings of a child were stolen. False hopes were followed by unanswered prayers. Direct challenges to God were answered swiftly and harshly, without mercy. Abandoned by the God I was taught to trust, the well of life had run dry. The day of reckoning had arrived. With nothing to lose, I would have no regrets. I was the foundation of nothing. A promise for no one. The .357 revolver was my only hope for peace.

This Manifesto is about spiritual warfare; it is about being Christian in the midst of an anti-Christian world. It is about exposing not only the sins of those around you but exposing your own sins, too. It is about recognizing one's real enemy, the devil, and not treating others you don't agree with as enemies.
